Hey God

Hey God, have you glanced down lately,
  At the world that we're living in,
I don't know how we made it this far,
  Can't you see we're drowning in sin,

We give kids guns and they're soldiers,
  They can't drink, but they can fight our wars,
Where is love, without it we're nothing,
  What's life when you've lost your soul,

And why, if you know that we're dying,
  Is it so hard and so slow,
Last night I dreamt we were talking,
  And here's what I wanted to know...

Does it ever
Get any better
Will it ever
Hurt any less
Is it ever
Worth all this pain
Do we ever 
Find love and happiness
Tell me which way to forever
Do you listen when we cry these prayers
And how... how far is Heaven
I'm so tired
Please take me there

Now here we are with one foot in Heaven,
  There we go the other foot in hell,
They say things will get better,
  I look around it's so hard to tell,

You can have these guns I don't need them,
  Keep your drugs, I can't use them anymore,
My dreams, they're my salvation,
  My wings, someday I'll soar,

I cry now and wish for the laughter,
  And I fight so one day we'll play,
And Lord I hope that I meet you,
  Then here's what I'll say...

Does it ever
Get any better
Will it ever
Hurt any less
Is it ever
Worth all this pain
Do we ever 
Find love and happiness
Tell me which way to forever
Do you listen when we cry these prayers
And how... how far is Heaven
I'm so tired
Please take me there
